Well for the rear wheels you have to jack it up and removed them so you can get them on. I used the pre-existing trim screw holes, and the new screws that came with it. The fronts are easy because you can turn the wheels.

Your tail lights look wicked..... now I'm going to go have to do that to my 97.
I'll probably wait til the summer to do it.... too friggin cold now.

How hard did you find it to tint your taillights?
What about your clear corners in your front?

I've read the tech articles.... but do you have any tips?


Again... the Purple Pearl looks really sweet.

I bought two cans from www.summitracing.com , someone also told me jeg'* might have it (www.jegs.com) so either place should work. The techinfo is what i followed. Stuff went on good, i used many many smaller lighter coats, then 2 or 3 heavy coats. I wish i had put more clearcoat on when i was doing it, so i'll have to redo it sometime.

I only used one can, one is still completely empty. I'll be bringing it to the meet for sale if anyone wants it.
